/*The rebelling mind*/

Has it really been so long since the mind gave up? Does it really take no more than meaningless thoughts for the mind to wander?

Several millenia have passed since Lord Rama vanquished Ravana and Sri Krishna fell the evil Narakasura, and the denizens of bhuloka still celebrate this auspicious day. The Yogi offers prayer to Lakshmi, goddess of wealth, and Vishnu, the supreme godhead, to guide him in his path to true understanding.

Yet, the gods do not seem to care - and why would they? - the yogi has taken no step to help himself. Self motivation, passion for success, and perfection were once his forte - But alas, his mind has rebelled, and anarchy looms over his being.

In penning down his thoughts, he hopes to rid his mind of negative elements which have been pulling him down and build within him the motivation required to accomplish a herculian task - one which needs to be achieved before the following dawn. The yogi is running out of time, and although he didn't manage to convey much through this passage, he will not leave the topic for open discussion. That said, the return of the yogi is imminent - for he always finishes what he sets out to accomplish.

Asatoma Sadgamaya
Thamaso Maa Jyothir Gamaya
Mrithyor Maa Amrutham Gamaya
Aum Shanti Shanti Shantihi

Lead me from the unreal to the real

Lead me from darkness to light

Lead me from death to immortality

May there be peace everywhere
